Taper notes:
So this is BARN43, the other half BARN42 -- the Global Noize set at the Howlin' Wolf from Jazzfest 08, after the Russell Batiste and Friends set that I previously posted. Jason Miles and DJ Logic were able to bring together a lot of BIG names on this stage for this show -- Billy Martin, Karl Denson, Oteil Burbridge, Bernie Worrell, Christian Scott, Topaz. The music is definitely some sort of hybrid jazz/world beat. I guess the night of the show, it felt a little strange after a pretty great funky throwdown opener, also with lots of big name special guests, to have a band play much more "head trip" oriented jazz/world beat combo, late at night in New Orleans. Well maybe if I was one of those who indulged in certain substances it would have made more sense, but I wasn't. Anyway, upon listening back now, it's a really killer set of music if you're in a certain mood for sure. I think I appreciate more now listening at home than I did that night. You can really hear the personalities of each of the individual musicians coming through in the music -- Billy Martin, Karl Denson, Oteil Burbridge, and Bernie Worrell, in particular, sound exactly as you might expect them to sound, and they mesh really well on the unfamiliar material.
Long live Jazzfest, and my appreciation series continues. :-)
Enjoy!
Scott
